I don't know. Maybe it's different according to where you show or maybe the rules just aren't enforced here. I also show call ducks and one of my hens has won BV at an ABA show with no legband. I have seen some birds showing with the metal close end bands, but very few. 99% of them have the...

I've been showing oegb for a couple of years and have earned points. You don't have to have bands. Some people who have a lot of birds do band in order to tell them apart. I've mostly seen the colored spiral bands used. I've accumulated enough birds now that I'm going to have to start banding...

This classified is closed. They've been sold. Sorry.

I have 3 full incubators of eggs and the the hens keep laying, so, for a limited time, I'm offering purebred old english game bantam hatching eggs. All of these birds are show quality and have won many BV's. What is shipped is what has been laid for the week. I can't fill orders of any...

There will be shows in the fall in GA. Calhoun, Jefferson, Dalton and Hartwell. Hang in there ! It will be here before you know it ! I think we're done til then. Just going to hatch babies and see who grows up nice enough to be the next generation of show birds. We should have LOTS of old...

I love the lemon blues too. My cockerel was bred by Noah Webster who was inducted into the Old English Game Breeders Hall of Fame last year. I bought him from Neat Bantams in north GA. He's not finished growing yet and should really look his best this fall. I'm really interested in what his...

I ended up buying 9 old english. A guy gave me a good deal because he didn't want to pack them up. Also won 3 raffles.

Thanks ! We may go to one more show in April, but for the most part it will be breeding birds and raising chicks until fall shows start up.

Happy to say I had a good weekend at the show. My lemon blue cockerel won Best of Variety (his first show !), brown red pullet placed 3rd, ginger red cock placed 2nd, quail pullet and hen both placed 4th. I bought 2 lemon blue pullets, a ginger red pullet and 3 pairs of brassybacks.

Selling out of d'uccles-good opportunity to pick up some breeding/show stock. I have the following for sale : 1 pair black d'uccles- hen has won BV twice and BB once, great layer and 100% fertility so far ($30); 1 trio of golden necks plus 1 golden neck booted bantam pullet-the oldest female is...

The show hasn't even started and I already bought a pair of old english ! I'm hopeless !

I don't think lemon blues are rare. There's always a bunch of them showing.

You can go to bantamclub.com then go to photos and then click on American and old english game bantams. I think most varieties are pictured.. Also on the Ideal Hatchery site you can see pictures of a huge list of varieties although they are drawings rather than photos.

I think my phone is possessed.
